We gotta do what we have to.....working on the washplant this time of year is a bit*h since here in Oregon the weather wants to continue to be wet and cold and these old hands freeze up quick.Welding with a mig has it's challenges when you hopefully don't end up lit up like a halogen light bulb. Don't know if there is much gold three hundred feet from the creek but the old tailings from many moons ago show that some other miners where willing to dig dirt here...HA! On the flip side it allows us to continue to be in good graces with BLM and maintain these claims.
